The all-new fourth-generation Maruti Swift has been one of the most anticipated cars of 2024. The details of the cars are dropped by the teasers or spy pictures every then and now. The car is still a little away from debut, but it has already arrived at a few stores and fresh information about the hatchback has begun to surface online. We now know one of the important safety modifications that will be applied to the well-liked Maruti hatchback, according to our sources.
Every Variant Has Six Airbags
Six airbags will be included as standard equipment on all 2024 Maruti Swift versions, giving it a safer option than the previous model.
Six airbags were not a standard feature of the previous Swift model, thus this is a major upgrade.
It's also possible that Maruti Suzuki strengthened the Swift's structural integrity to raise the vehicle's overall safety rating. The Japan NCAP crash tests gave the Japan-spec Swift a 4-star grade recently.
It's crucial to remember that the advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) capabilities of the Japan-spec model could not be available for the India-spec model.
Additional Safety Elements
The new Maruti Swift of 2024 is anticipated to come with six airbags as well as other safety features including ESP (Electronic Stability Program), a reversing camera, and potentially a 360-degree camera with blind spot recognition.
A Brand-New Internal Combustion Engine
A brand-new 1.2-liter, 3-cylinder Z-series petrol engine with 82 PS of power and up to 112 Nm of torque will power the Maruti Swift in 2024. The old 1.2-liter, 4-cylinder K-series gasoline engine has been replaced by this one. Both a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed automated manual transmission (AMT) are available as transmission options. Although it won't be offered at launch, a CNG powertrain option is anticipated to be added eventually.
Expected Price and Rivals
The new 2024 Swift from Maruti Suzuki is anticipated to start at about Rs 6.5 lakh (ex-showroom). The Hyundai Grand i10 Nios and other vehicles such as the Renault Triber, Tata Punch, and Hyundai Exter will be rivals of the Swift.
